Can any of our seasoned travelers offer advice on this routing and on the service, reliability, safety of flights on this carrier which apparently didn't exist until recently? Are there better connections/carriers to this city? Could I use my Star Alliance (United) miles on Adria Airlines? Any recommendations on Ljubljana hotels? I doubt we'll find any Four Seasons or Ritz Carlton Hotels there. Thank you and a Merry Christmas.
